Paul writes – “Here’s picture sent to one of my mailing lists by a fellow model engineer, of a boiler he’s building. Looks very much like a Jack-o-Lantern… He also blogs his progress on a number of different locomotive projects, heres the page. Not sure, but I thought this stuff may be of interest to your readers. It is certainly in the same vein as the steam bicycles and the work I-Wei Huang.”Link.
